This morning I'd like to share one of my favorite episodes of the science fiction series X Minus One . In George Lefferts' The Parade , an advertising agency exec is approached by a man looking to promote the upcoming Martian arrival on Earth. Sure! Let's gather everyone together to welcome our new friends from the Red Planet! While the episode isn't the scariest tale around, the premise and insight into our human nature is interesting. The Parade originally aired on January 25th, 1956.
